Kathy

A boy who would rather sit through his mother's living-room exorcisms than play with kids his own age meets Kathy, a new member of the prayer circle whose read on him is uncomfortably accurate. The short lets the tension between faith and secrecy do most of the scaring, keeping its demon mostly implied.
